Using Excel Solver Company XYZ produces three models (M1, M2, M3) of batteries at three different locations (plant A, B, C). See tables below for the required production quantities for a new customer contract and the unit cost for each model. New Contract Orders Type Qty M1240000 M2120000 M3180000 Production Costs Type Plant A Plant B Plant C M1 $0.85 $0.900.65 M2 $1.00 $1.050.55 M3 $1.30 $1.200.6 The combined Model 1 & Model 2 production capacities are 150,000 units at Plant A and 180,000 units at plant B and 30,000 units at Plant C. The Model 3 production capacities are 100,000 units at Plan A and 90,000 units at the plant B and 40,000 at Plant C. The cost of shipping from plant A is $0.2 per unit and from plant B is $0.25 per unit and from Plan C 0.3.Q2. Solve the linear program\model (setup) developed in Q1 to determine the optimal production plan quantities.
